2025-2026 Nordica Skis Preview

Nordica Skis 2026: The First Look Nordica has some of the most recognizable skis in the game. With the overhaul of the Enforcer and Santa Ana series last year, those popular skis are riding better than ever. To compliment those directional all-mountain skis, Nordica is turning their attention to their more playful and freeride focused Unleashed skis. With a few new skis in that collection, the Unleashed is staking its claim as a playful option for skiers who like a balance of stability and a flair for fun.

Our Take On The 2026 Nordica Santa Ana 87:

The Santa Ana series earned legend status the last few seasons with consistent performance in all different waist widths. With a fresh update, the new Santa Ana 87 is the most narrow and firm snow focused of the collection. If you spend most of your time carving groomers, dealing with firm snow, or like a nimble and responsive ski, this is the Santa Ana for you. With the most metal in the terrain specific metal lineup, the Santa Ana 87 is particularly suited for firm snow. You'll get additional dampening, suspension, and support for the ski getting it over on edge. Where the Santa Ana 87 differs from more carving specific skis is the versatility. Increased tail rocker (more than the older Santa Ana 88) and a tweaked tip shape allow the ski to link turns more intuitively and release easier in tight terrain. That doesn't mean you can't still rail turns on this though. It just lets you explore off trail, or let off the gas. A stoked intermediate could hop on this as a daily driver, just as much as an advanced skier looking for a versatile narrow all-mountain ski can. This is a top pick for ladies in lower snow regions, or for women prioritizing a nimble ride.
